This change will happen for season 4, the rest of the episodes for season 3 will still be under Mazzara.

I am bad about putting episode names to the actual episodes.

He did write or help write Save the Last One, Pretty Much Dead Already, and 18 miles out from the second season. And Hounded and the Upcoming Sorrowful Life.

I did look up the episodes, by title I recall liking them more or less.

I know he did the last Ghost Rider movie.

I would be also curious why Mazzara is no longer show runner.

I know Mazarra has gone on record in several interviews saying things like he would never want to kill off Judith like what happened in the comic because it would make the show too dark and it wouldn't last if it got that hopeless, or he has to get some levity into the show because there's no way a show as bleak as the comics would last, or that the big event between Governor and Michonne just wouldn't work on TV because audiences would just end up tuning out. It seems to me that he has been unwilling to let the show get as dark and emotionally devastating as the comic has been able to get. For instance, I could never see the show doing to a character what just happened to a fan favorite in issue 100. Which...as sick as it made me feel, I'm glad it went there because it actually MADE me feel like that. Not many comics or tv shows can mess me up like that.

I agree. And it goes along with the discussion we had a few pages back about the gruesomeness of the show vs the comic. I got the paper back for volume 17 and when I thumbed through it I wasn't wanting to read issue 100 because just the images and what happened.

I haven't watched tonights episode, but based on the previous episode she was forced to remove the shirt and bra and then the Governor came up behind her and bent her over as I recall. After saying a few more things he basically says I gotcha then walks off. There was no actual intercourse that happened but as the torture was at least with the hint of sexual behavior it would fall under sexual assault.

Again I haven't seen tonight's episode to know what was specifically said, to know if there was implication of other actions or not. It very well could be, the writers intention was to be essentially rape but showing that on even a channel like AMC with a show that at the time was rated tv-14 was pushing it. The show is now rated TV-MA or at least last night's episode was.

The car placement they have had in shows lately is horrible. Ghost Whisperer with the Jeeps, Heroes with the Nissans, Warehouse 13 and Eureka, and Walking Dead I can think off the top of my head. With super blatant buy our cars look the radio comes in hyper color turquoise and has a super awesome GPS. Characters get out of car, I love how those doors shut themselves for me.

Last night, AMC’s mid-season three premiere of “The Walking Dead” returned with its largest audience ever in series history delivering 12.3 million viewers at the 9pm premiere. The previous record was 10.9 million viewers from the season three premiere on October 14, 2012. The episode is also the strongest telecast for a series in basic cable history for adults 18-49 with 7.7 million. These results shatter the hit series’ previous record with an increase of +6% (A18-49) over the October 14, 2012 season three premiere. “The Walking Dead” season three series average for adults 18-49 delivers 6.8 million outperforming other television series season averages including “Modern Family,” ‘The Big Bang Theory,” “Two and a Half Men,” and “NCIS.” In addition to the 9 PM premiere, the show encored at 11 PM, midnight and 2am, delivering 16.6 million viewers for the night.

meh, doesn't bother me, i understand esp in these days where more people are downloading or pvr-ing their shows...still need to make money, product placement is download proof.

That doesn't suprise me....it is the best show on T.V.! Product placement doesn't bother me at all honestly...as long as it doesn't take you out of the story. That being said I hate the sub way commercials in American Pickers and Pawn Stars.....lol. As long as they don't do that I'm fine.

I don't mind it, it's just a lot of the car stuff has characters saying things in ways that are just awkward. Like a character known for not getting lost, saying 'the real reason I never get lost is because of my xyz car's gps.'

hmmm you bring up a good point with GPS. There are 24 satellites that send out the signals. They have solar power so they will run post-apocalyptic. However, they have to be stay in their correct paths. They have their own booster to keep them navigated where they need to be, but I don't know how much human interaction that function needs.

I was a little disappointed in the ending of this past episode. I really wish they would drop the

Rick talks to Lori/sees her.

. One of my least favorite things in the comics.

lol I was just sitting here thinking about that stupid little car they drive. Not only is it not ideal for the situation, the world has gone to ****, but yet that car is nice and shiny.

Anyone else excited to watch it in black and white?

Overall, this show has been fantastic. I caught up with all episodes last Sunday during the AMC marathon. As a whole, it's been damn good. I just hope it doesn't become too damn redundant or lacking in direction.

Yeah on Talking Dead Robert Kirkman seemed to imply he will be back before the season is over, probably to help out Rick I would think. I hope when he comes back that its just him, his wife and the two other guys did not interest me much as characters
